week 9

This week has been amazing!!! We finally moved into our new building. This building is so beautiful and I am happy that we are in it.

This week we learned some terms about computers so here is a list of them.
  • Track: When companies collect information about you based on your online behavior.
  • Target: When companies tailor content to you based on the information they have collected about you.
  • Demographic: Common categories of the population, such as age, gender, and race.
  • Cookies: Data files that are stored on your computer when you visit certain sites, which are often used by companies to identify repeat customers and personalize visitors' experiences
This week our web. 2.0 is Mixbook. Mixbook is where you can make a book of pictures online and its for free. I think the good thing about Mixbook is that you can design your own book for any occasion. The bad part is that it don't have that much calorful stuff for people to pick over.

How can these words relate to the idea of targeting and tracking? well first thing is that people can track you no matter how good you are good at computers and how much you delete your cookies. The secound thing is that being bad about some website using someone elses picture can be true and you won't have nothing to do about it.
